NAME

Template::Plugin::LinkTarget - Template Toolkit filter to add "target" attribute to all HTML links

SYNOPSIS

[% USE LinkTarget(target="_blank" exclude=['www.example.com']) %]
...
[% FILTER linktarget %]
  <a href="http://www.google.com/">Google</a>
[% END %]
...
[% text | linktarget %]

DESCRIPTION

Template::Plugin::LinkTarget is a filter plugin for Template::Toolkit, which adds a target attribute to all HTML links found in the filtered text.

Through the use of the exclude option, you can specify URLs that are not given a new target attribute. This can be used to set up a filter that leaves internal links alone but that sets up external links to open in a new browser window. exclude accepts a list of regular expressions, so you can be as elaborate as you'd like.

The target option specifies what target you'd like to give to links, defaulting to "_blank".

METHODS

• init()

  Initializes the template plugin.

• filter($text, $args, $conf)

  Filters the given text, and adds the "target" attribute to links.
